• Faye and Andrew were terrific. They came in, listened to my direction for all of 5 minutes, then did exactly what I needed, and raised it up a notch. They seemed to have a good time, and that translated into an audience that had an even better time. I would use their talents again any time it was appropriate. They were talented, professional, willing and very easy to work with. They are both nice people as well. -- Don M, Charlotte, NC, 5/23/2010
• They made our night unique, fun, and as hassle free as possible. I would easily recommend them to anyone for any type of event. They had fun, we had fun, and it sounded great.... you can't beat it. Thanks so much guys! I know my family/friends can be.... demanding (thats the word we'll use, anyway) and you handled them graciously. -- Jake S, High Point, NC, 7/31/2010
• They were great, they tackled the difficult task of providing an instrumental version of two very specific Iron & Wine songs beautifully. They added the perfect southern touch to my wedding and would recommend them for any event where you would like a personal, acoustic touch. -- Bethany S, Concord, NC, 4/14/2012
